\section secVisualizationPresentation Overview
The <b>pcl_visualization</b> library was built for the purpose of being able to quickly prototype and visualize the
results of algorithms operating on 3D point cloud data. Similar to OpenCV's <b>highgui</b> routines for displaying
2D images and for drawing basic 2D shapes on screen, the library offers:
<ul>
<li> methods for rendering and setting visual properties (colors, point sizes, opacity, etc) for any n-D point cloud
datasets in pcl::PointCloud<T> format;

<li> methods for drawing basic 3D shapes on screen (e.g., cylinders, spheres,lines, polygons, etc) either from sets
of points or from parametric equations;

<li> a histogram visualization module (PCLHistogramVisualizer) for 2D plots;

<li> a multitude of Geometry and Color handler for pcl::PointCloud<T> datasets;

<li> a pcl::RangeImage visualization module.

</ul>
The package makes use of the VTK library for 3D rendering for range image and 2D operations.
For implementing your own visualizers, take a look at the tests and examples accompanying the library.
